Channel changing still not working for me.

DVB-S card= Technotrend Budget S-1500 with CI driver 5.0.0.12

When changing channel, the OSD changes, but actual channel content stays the old channel.

Attached are my logs:

I got the same errors like in todays first build:
http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/un...95/#post233024

At change from Nick Austria to MTV Germany I got after 2 seconds MRD Sachsen and 3 seconds later MTV Germany. On EinsFestival the sound has some little stutter problems.

It's hard to find anything in your logs.
Could you PLEASE post/make the following:
- disable both epg grabbers (although they should be working, the log entries make it hard to find the plot)
- delete TsWriter.log
- start tvservice
- tune to one channel
- tune to another channel (where the bug happens)
post Tv.log and TsWriter.log

Channel changing is very slow
Mini guide is very slow.
Crash when switching to HD channel.

Logs attached

I did the same sis3970 should do. MP started with EinsFestival I changed to EinsExtra, OSD said I am watching EinsExtra but I saw EinsFestival. After this I closed MP.

Here are the server logs:

[donkarlos]

are the last ~ 10 snaps....

channel change from e.g. Pro7 to ARD -> picture freezes
channel change from pro7 to sat1 -> OK
after TV off/on it is OK
ONE I make that several times -> for complete crash
without error logs.

there nothing at all changes

Here also sometimes channel change fails.
Attached logs show folloing sceneario:
TV on with channel "VOX"
switch to channel "SUPER RTL"
Picture freezes for short time
continues to show channle "VOX"
MiniEPG shows "SUPER RTL" as actual channel, evem "VOX is displayed.

However zapping speed and overall stabiöity greatly improved.
